This is the fastest route up the hill from the city center. The trip lasts about 10 minutes. Board at the “Piazza Dante” stop in front of the train station or at the “Venezia – Port’Aquila” stop. Some buses finish their route in front of FBK (the stop is called “Polo Scientifico”). Some other buses take a different route. In this case, you can get off at the “POVO “Fac. Scienze” stop and follow the sign to FBK, or you can get off at the “Povo – Piazza Manci” stop and walk 100m down the hill: you will easily see the back of the large FBK building (grey with blue windows) surrounded by a light blue gate.
